 **RSSI**  indicates Relative Signal Strength. This applies only to WiFi clients connected to this router. RSSI is measured in negative numbers, where 0 is the best possible value. Thus, -53 is a stronger signal than -74.

 **Noise floor** indicates the amount of interference affecting each physical radio interface. Noise, like RSSI, is measured in negative numbers. The best possible value is -100dBm. Any interference will increase the noise value and decrease the Quality.
-If you experience a strong RSSI //and// a strong Noise floor, the WiFi is likely to be unusable. In these situations, the main cause is usually other routers or Access Points transmitting on the same channel. Use the [[:wireless_survey|Wireless Survey]] tool to get more information.

 On the 2.4GHz band, common sources of interference include:

-On the 5GHz band, there are typically fewer sources of interference. One source of interference is DFS (Dynamic Frequency Selection) but for specific channels only. DFS is a WiFi function that enables 5GHz WiFi to use frequencies generally reserved for radar. Ironically, DFS was designed to reduce interference. DFS interference varies, depending on the country/physical location of the equipment. If you suspect interference is due to DFS, see Wikipedia's [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_WLAN_channels|List of WLAN Channels]] for details.

 **Network Discovery**: This function has been available since release 2021.4 . The Network Discovery function scans all IP addresses in a range to accurately populate the Device List table. (Default: disabled). If enabled, it will remain running for the length of the web interface session. However, it will stop if you leave the Device List menu.
